On Sunday, Authorities said that a Brazilian gang leader tried to escape from prison by dressing up as his daughter when she visited him to his cell & walking out the penitentiary’s main door in her place.

Prison officials informed that the nervousness shown by Clauvino da Silva, known as “Shorty,” as he attempted to escape the prison in the western part of Rio de Janeiro dressed as a woman gave him away.

Apparently his plan was to leave his 19-year-old daughter inside the prison. Police are also looking into her possible role as an accomplice in this unsuccessful attempt to escape from Gericinó prison.

State Secretary of Rio Prison Administration released pictures displaying da Silva in a silicon girl’s mask & lengthy dark-haired wig, wearing tight jeans & a pink shirt with a cartoon picture of donuts.

They also released a video that shows him removing the mask & some of the clothes, & stating his complete name.

Da Silva was part of the leadership of the Red Command which is one of the most powerful criminal organization in Brazil that controlled drug trafficking in a large part of Rio.

After his failed attempt, da Silva was transferred to a unit of a max-security prison & will face disciplinary sanctions, officials said.
